interfaces bridge <brx> spanning-tree max-age <interval>

Specifies how long a bridge group waits for a hello packet from the spanning tree root.

set interfaces bridge brx spanning-tree max-age interval
delete interfaces bridge brx spanning-tree max-age
show interfaces bridge brx spanning-tree max-age

The bridge group removes neighbor bridges at 20-second intervals.

brx
Bridge group ID.
spanning-tree
Specifies spanning tree configuration.
max-age interval
Specifies the maximum age, in seconds, of received bridge BPDUs. The range is 6 through 40. The default value is 20 seconds.

Configuration mode


interfaces {
    bridge brx {
        spanning-tree {
            max-age interval
        }
    }
}
Note: The configuration enforces the following relationship between the forwarding-delay and max-age spanning tree protocol timers:
  • 2 * ( forwarding-delay - 1 second) >= max-age

Use this command to specify the interval at which neighbor bridges are removed.

Use the set form of this command to specify the maximum age interval.

Use the delete form of this command to restore the default maximum age interval configuration.

Use the show form of this command to view the maximum age interval configuration.
